At
Blue Sage Studios we offer glassblowing lessons. Glassblowing lessons
are $85 an hour.
We can schedule your lessons just about any time. The studio takes
care of all the supplies and you get to keep what you make. During
the typical first lesson an individual will learn the basics of movement
and safety in the studio. We then create a two gather “wine topper” paperweight
and a flower. At Blue Sage Studios we employ the tell, show, do method
of teaching. We first talk through the process, demonstration the
process and then the student does their own piece. Everyone learns
at different speeds and levels and we tailor fit your glass experience
. While not everything turns out as expected, a good time is usually
had by all.

We
also offer studio rental for folks who are glassblowers. Studio
rental is $60 an hour.
We have two glory holes, a #300 furnace, four annealhers, and all the
tools of the trade.

We offer glassblowing demonstrations for
the public. Any time we are working folks are welcome to come in and
watch. Glassblowing is captivating for young and old alike. We host
parties at the studio as well. Birthdays, anniversaries, wedding receptions,
even just a “date night” can be scheduled. Large or small groups are
no trouble. We even have parking for a tour bus.

During a typical
birthday party with twenty guests or so; the hostess will bring
in hors d'oeuvres, drinks,
cake and ice cream. The guest of honor will pick out color and a basic
shape (a ruffle bowl). Our artists will create the bowl while everyone
watches. It makes for a really lovely party.

We do not charge for our demonstrations
but we do hope the special piece we create for the guest of honor
will be purchased.
